年輕版《蒙娜麗莎》鑑定爲真跡 確定出自達•芬奇之手大綱
New tests on a painting billed as the original version of the Mona Lisa have produced fresh proof that it is the work of Leonardo, a Swiss-based art foundation has said.
一個瑞士藝術基金會宣佈他們找到了新的證據，證明一副據稱是年輕版《蒙娜麗莎》的畫作確是達·芬奇的真跡。
The tests on his 15th century portrait were carried out by a specialist in "sacred geometry" and by the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in the wake of the Geneva unveiling of the painting, the Isleworth Mona Lisa, last September.
這幅15世紀創作的肖像畫《艾爾沃斯·蒙娜麗莎》去年9月在日內瓦公佈之後，一名神聖幾何學專家和瑞士聯邦理工學院對其進行了檢驗。
"When we add these new findings to the wealth of scientific and physical studies we already have, I believe anyone will find the evidence of a Leonardo attribution overwhelming," said David Feldman, vice-president of the foundation.
基金會的副主席大衛·費爾德曼說：“我們過去已經對達·芬奇的作品做了大量科學和物理研究，看到這些新發現，我想無論是誰都會覺得這是一個強有力的證據。”
The Mona Lisa in the Louvre for over three centuries has long been regarded as the only one painted by Leonardo, although there have been copies, and claims for the Swiss-held one were dismissed by some experts last year.
雖然有許多複製品，但一直以來，在盧浮宮懸掛了三百餘年的《蒙娜麗莎》被認爲是達·芬奇的唯一真跡。去年有人稱瑞士的《蒙娜麗莎》也出自達·芬奇的手筆，專家並沒有予以理會。
But it also won support in the art world, encouraging the Zurich-based Mona Lisa Foundation – an international group that says it has no financial interest in the work – to pursue efforts to demonstrate its authenticity.
然而這幅瑞士版的《蒙娜麗莎》卻得到了藝術界的支持。藝術界人士呼籲蘇黎世的蒙娜麗莎基金會採取措施，驗證瑞士的《蒙娜麗莎》是否是真跡，不過基金會稱自己沒有畫作的所有權。
Feldman, an Irish-born international art and stamp dealer, said he was contacted after the public unveiling of the portrait – which shows a much younger woman than in the Louvre – by the Italian geometrist Alfonso Rubino.
愛爾蘭人費爾德曼是一名國際藝術品和郵票交易商，他說意大利幾何學家阿方索·魯比諾曾在肖像畫公之於衆之後聯繫過他。在這幅作品裏，畫中人要比盧浮宮的蒙娜麗莎年輕得多。
"He has made extended studies of the geometry of Leonardo's Vitruvian Man [a sketch of a youth with arms and legs extended] and offered to look at our painting to see if it conformed," said Feldman.
費爾德曼表示：“魯比諾對達·芬奇的素描畫《維特魯威人》中的幾何關係進行過詳細的研究，他提出看看這幅《蒙娜麗莎》，看它的幾何結構是否符合。”
The conclusion by the Padua-based Rubino was that the Isleworth portrait – named after the London suburb where it was kept by the British art connoisseur Hugh Blaker 80-90 years ago – matched Leonardo's geometry and must be his.
這幅肖像畫叫《艾爾沃斯·蒙娜麗莎》，根據一處倫敦郊區命名。八九十年前，英國藝術鑑賞家休·布萊克曾將這幅畫保存在此處。意大利帕多瓦的幾何學家魯比諾得出的結論是，艾爾沃斯肖像的幾何結構符合達·芬奇的作品特色。
The Zurich institute carried out a carbon-dating test on the canvas of its painting and found that it was almost certainly manufactured between 1410 and 1455, refuting claims that it was a late 16th century copy.
瑞士聯邦理工學院對油畫布進行了碳標記法檢測，他們發現這幅畫確實是在1410至1455年間創作的，反駁了此前有人聲稱的16世紀末複製品的說法。
